I'm surprised no-one's caught me out yet.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I voted for you to become a mod. We like to keep that part secret. Smile

What. The. Hell? I was looking for this thread allll night last night! Now here it is, fell right into my lap.. 

*wishes Lilly would fall into my lap

Lilly! I don't have words for how happy I am! Just think of all the trouble funtimes we can get into!
I'm so happy I made a blingee sparkly kitty picture to commemorate you and I and all the fun we will have! Big Grin

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Although, I'm pretty sure this is the exact type of situation for which the saying "the inmates are running the asylum" was created.

Did you think they weren't before?

Although it's lovely the way they wear that name like a badge of honour while there here.
Just like the kiwis.

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word

Fun?

I don't see how you're the kitty in the middle: that's most definitely where I most belong. I've got the form, I've got the 'tude, and I've got the shovel.
